The one I drove to Bluffton IN (400 miles round trip in one day) was a 6 banger and real comfey the seats just molded to your body like a hug. The ride was stiff like any performance car would be but comfortable. You had a feel for the road but it did not abuse you. But it's not like I can run out and buy one they can be pricey

Looks like I have to post a full review this week-end

I mean... at least it isn't an Edge or some other SUV like 95% of the cars around here.
Aren't moderators supposed to lead by setting the example?

Camaro are not common in London Ontario at all. I was going to agree with Chibi. Monte Carlo and Edges are very common here. Heck, I'd even go as far as to say the specific DaleJr Edition Monte Carlo is more common then new generation Camaro's in London. But 03JGMonte's rides are both exceptional examples of their respective models that would stand out in a pack of their own.

I didn't know they rented Camaro's SS's. I 'd say that is a testament to the cars durability because you know that everyone that rents one is going to beat the **** out it. Sounds fun!

Thanks `Tadd for your post/pic's & experience with the Camaro...I wish they weren't so heavy & I wish I had the funds to have a ZL`1

For the dollars, I think a Monte Carlo gives a person a lot of Bang for their $'s...All the Camaro's that I like are just way 2 Expensive 4-$ure * I am starting to see the Camaro's on the Used car lots & some have low miles & a lot lower prices then `NEW...

Yes, it would be fun to rent a S.S. & really test one `out

I for get for the day but the guy at Enterprise told me the silver one he rented me at the corporate rate would normally rent for $99 buck per day (It was a 6 banger)

The SS Rented in Phoenix total for a week was about 800 bucks (was my Christmas gift that year)
